Principles of oncologic chemotherapy and immunotherapy -- Pharmacology of cardio-oncology -- Anthracycline cardiotoxicity: clinical aspects, recognition, monitoring, treatment, and prevention -- Trastuzumab-associated cardiotoxicity -- Mechanisms of anti-hercardiotoxicity: interference with neuregulin-cardioprotective signaling -- Checkpoint inhibitors -- Effects of radiation therapy on the cardiovascular system -- Cardiac amyloidosis -- Cardiac arrhythmias in the cancer patient -- Cardiac ultrasonography, doppler imaging, and related techniques for cancer patients -- Diagnosis of cardiac tumors -- Pericardial disease in the cancer patient -- Arterial and venous thromboembolic diseases in cancer patients -- Cardiac tumors -- Carcinoid heart disease -- Cardiac monitoring during clinical trials -- Cardiovascular toxicity of antiangiogenic therapy: mechanisms and management -- Heart-lung interactions in the cancer patient -- Cardiac emergencies among cancer patients -- Cardiac considerations for treating cancer in infants and children -- Infectious endocarditis in cancer patients -- Magnetic resonance imaging and therapeutic radiation in cancer patients with implanted pacemaker or defibrillator devices -- Cardiovascular interventions for cancer patients -- Psychosocial considerations in treating the cancer patient with heart disease -- Preoperative assessment of the cancer patient for noncardiovascular surgery -- Advanced heart failure in patients with cancer -- Pregnancy and the heart in cancer patients and survivors -- Exercise in the cancer patient: cardiovascular considerations.
"In Cancer and the Heart, third edition, Dr. Ewer and colleagues at MD Anderson are joined by national and international authorities who contributed to the 28 chapters of this volume. The various authors present their insights into the effects of anticancer drugs and radiation treatment on the heart, and other organ systems. Discussions are advanced on imaging strategies and techniques with an emphasis on specific clinical problems experienced by physicians and their patients. Readers will find a useful reference intended to help them recognize the decision-making dilemmas they face providing optimal tumor management, and a useful resource to help them and their cancer patients cope with inevitable challenges"--Publisher's description.
